Uniform Rice-like CdS Particles Prepared from Water-in-oil Microemulsions

摘要

Uniform rice-like CdS particles were synthesized in cyclohexane/Triton X-100-pentanol/water quaternary microemulsions. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and electron diffraction. The results indicate that the size and the shape of the rice-like CdS particles can be influenced by the molar ratio of water to the surfactant(w value) and the reactant concentrations.
